The sooner you report, the sooner we start searching
Most items that turn up are found within the first week. By filing your report now, you give yourself the best chance of recovery, and you hand off the ongoing search to us. Once your report is submitted, the Westmont Police Department and community channels are notified, and we begin cross-checking new found-item posts on your behalf.
Report my lost item →Westmont is a close-knit suburban community where people lose wallets at local shops, leave bags on Pace buses, misplace items in parks, and accidentally drop valuables in cafes and offices. The challenge is that lost-and-found services are scattered across the Westmont Police Department, individual businesses, Pace Transit, DuPage County Animal Services, and community Facebook groups. By the time you contact each one separately, hours have passed and momentum fades.
ReportLost simplifies the hunt. Instead of making ten phone calls and posting on multiple platforms yourself, you file one report with us. We immediately notify the Westmont Police Department and route the information to the right channels. Better yet, your report doesn't stop searching after a day or two. It stays active throughout your search period, automatically checking for matches against new found-item posts and community alerts so you can focus on your day instead of continuously monitoring Nextdoor and Facebook.
